"I heard that Ma Debiao was caught on the spot. He was still naked when he was caught. How could this man be so shameless? He did such a thing in broad daylight." After Chen Shuifen finished speaking, she also made a "Pah" sound.

Lin Tao frowned as she hooked her shoes: "He was caught in broad daylight? Was he caught by patrol soldiers?"

Zhong Jing shook her head and said, "No, I heard that it was caught by the widow's other lover."

Zhong Jing lived in the fishing village. Although she was not one who liked to join in the hustle and bustle, the fishing village was so small that even if she didn't go out of her way to ask, she would know what was going on just by looking at everyone on the street talking about it.

Several people were shocked when they heard this. They didn't expect that this widow was so romantic and had more than one lover.

Although the rumor about the "military officer having an affair with a widow" seemed to be true, Lin Tao didn't really believe it. Chen Shuifen even guessed who it might be, but Lin Tao didn't comment.

I didn't expect this to happen, and that man was Huang Aidi's man Ma Debiao.

When this rumor first came out, Huang Aidi said that the man was Zheng Youde, but it turned out to be her own man. And Huang Aidi was pregnant, so I don't know how she would feel after hearing this news.

Lin Tao thought of Huang Aidi and asked, "What about Huang Aidi? Does she know about this?"

Chen Shuifen knew about this and replied, "She didn't know when she was arrested. She heard that the man who had an affair with the widow was arrested, so she ran over to watch the excitement. But when she saw that the man arrested was actually Ma Debiao, she was so angry that she bled. She had always said that the baby in her belly was a son, and she ate well in various ways, but the baby was too big and could not be born. Later, she had a heavy hemorrhage. If she hadn't been sent to the hospital in time, I'm afraid she would have died."

The last child born was a daughter.

At this point, Chen Shuifen couldn't help but curse: "Do you think this Ma Debiao is still a human being? His wife is still pregnant, but he went out to find a woman. How can he be so shameless? If it were me, I would chop off his two taels of meat with that knife and make sure he can't find a woman for the rest of his life."

"Huang Aidi even wrongly accused your captain Zheng of having a woman. Weren't you angry with her? You even spoke for her," said Xu Yuting.

Chen Shuifen waved her hands: "I am angry, how can I not be angry? She splashed dirty water on my husband Zheng outside. If she hadn't been pregnant at the time, I would have wanted to beat her up. But I hate her and I look down on men like Ma Debiao. It has nothing to do with me. I scold men like Ma Debiao every time I see them. They are shameless. I am also annoyed by Huang Aidi, but I also think she is quite pitiful."

"You said that no one loved her since she was little. Her parents only wanted a son. They gave birth to five or six sisters in a row before they got a baby. They loved her like a treasure. They asked her sisters to do all the big and small things in the family. They had to do them since they were little. She said that her eldest sister was cooking at the stove when she was just six or seven years old. The younger ones had to dress and feed their younger brother. If they didn't do well, they would be beaten. If their younger brother fell, they would be beaten too."

"When I was still close to her, she showed me a wound on her back. It was so big and it was all caused by burns. I asked her why she got burned, and she told me that when she was eight years old, she took her brother to the river with the children in the village to catch snails. At that time, her brother was still young, just over one year old, and she put her brother on the edge of the field and went to catch snails herself. As a result, a leech crawled onto her brother's feet and sucked blood. In our countryside, if someone has a leech on his body, he has to use a cigarette butt to burn it off. He can't just pull it out directly, because the more you pull it out, the easier it is for it to get sucked into the skin."

When Chen Shuifen said this, Lin Tao clearly felt Xu Yuting beside her take a breath and shake off the goose bumps on her body.

Lin Tao was fine, as she grew up in the countryside and these things were common to her.

Then I heard Chen Shuifen continue to say: "Fortunately, there was a passerby smoking a cigarette at the time, and Huang Aidi let that person burn her brother's feet. As a result, her parents found out about this, so they took the iron pliers at home, put them in the fire, heated them red, and used them to burn her back. Even when she married Ma Debiao, it was because her parents were greedy for the hundred-yuan betrothal money, which they wanted to use to marry her brother. Otherwise, Huang Aidi, a young lady in her early twenties, would not have had to marry Ma Debiao, a second-married man in his thirties."

Xu Yuting was so angry that her eyes widened. She cursed, "Are these parents still human? They are qualified to be parents? They really don't need to take exams or pay money to be parents. They just become parents casually. Do they think they can abuse girls at will? These beasts don't even think about it. Without women, where would they get men from?"

Xu Yuting's voice was a little loud, and it woke up Xiao Qingming who was sleeping and made him cry out.

Xu Yuting quickly picked up the child and tried to comfort him, but her violently heaving chest showed that she was still angry.

Yueyue was actually also woken up, but she was quite brave. She struggled for a while in Lin Tao's arms, glanced at Xu Yuting where the sound came from, turned around, and nuzzled into Lin Tao's arms, wanting to be fed.

Lin Tao sighed: "There are many such things in the countryside. In our village, many girls were strangled or drowned at birth..."

She almost became a victim too.

Zhong Jing also said, "Who says it's not true? Although it's not so serious in my family, my grandmother's idea of ​​favoring boys over girls is particularly serious. Whenever we get together at home for a meal, if there's chicken roasted, it's always for my brother and cousin, and my cousins ​​and I can only watch."

"So, now is a new society, not the feudal society of the past. The Chairman advocates equality between men and women. I think if we have the opportunity and ability in the future, we should help those girls more." Lin Tao said.

This has always been what she thought in her heart.

The rest of the people also agreed. In fact, they were all nice people. None of them favored boys over girls, so they couldn't understand that kind of person.

Take Huang Aidi for example. She had clearly suffered from the preference for boys over girls, but she would not resist this idea and she even became that kind of person.

It is true that there is always something hateful about a pitiful person.

**********************************

A few days after this incident, after Ma Debiao had reflected deeply on himself at a military district meeting, the army issued an order.

In fact, there were two orders. One was that Ma Debiao retired directly and returned to his hometown, and the other was to transfer him to a small island called Qingshui Island that was under development to do development work.

In fact, the organization had previously planned

Although the island is called Qingshui Island, it actually doesn't even have fresh water, let alone the non-staple food factory and supply and marketing cooperative on Shengshan Island. Not only are the conditions there extremely harsh, but supplies are also very scarce. Going there is almost the same as going to the front line, except that there may be life-threatening situations at the front line, and it is just better there.

But Ma Debiao decided to go to Qingshui Island.

It's not that he is more conscious and willing to use this method to make up for his mistakes. It's that he is old and retired because of this kind of behavior. When he retires, the organization will not arrange a job for him in his hometown, so he can only work as a farmer when he returns.

Not to mention that their hometown was poor and one work point was worth only a few cents. Even if he went back like this, it would be embarrassing.

Lin Tao heard about this from Li Chengxi. After the incident of Ma Debiao came out, Li Chengxi remembered that Lin Tao had mentioned this to Aunt Fang last time, so he told her about it when he came back in the evening.

"What you told Aunt Fang last time was true. A company commander of the 11th Regiment was punished by his superiors and sent to Qingshui Island to do development work." Li Chengxi said while changing Yueyue's diaper.

I have to say that Li Chengxi's diaper-changing skills are becoming more and more skillful, and he really looks like a father.

Yueyue is three months old now. The little girl has gained a lot of weight and looks very chubby and cute.

When Li Chengxi changed her diaper, she was busy kicking her little feet.

The last kick even hit Li Chengxi's face, but Li Chengxi was not angry at all. He even grabbed her little feet and kissed her.
